Okay so the sync didn't take anywhere near the time I thought it would.

Said deleting file xxx for a few lines and discarding tons of commits.

Anyways its building and has been since about 3:00 p.m et. Nothing special from your builds though just running through the motions of building.

Well i thought it was the boot image but now i cant get it boot again :(

Looks like it's something with the ROM itself. I'll have to check into it and see what's going on. Logs would be helpful though.

Yes AOSP already released a new kernel update and that's the one that the source uses for now.

That's help Thank you so much

so step 3 will completely clear all my data including apps, pic or music?

coz sometimes if u flash the new rom, the nandroid back up can't restore the your back up? Am I right?

so it's better to use titanium back up to back up the apps rather than use the nandroid back up ?

Since if u can't use the nandroid back up Then what' the point to make a nandroid backup??u can restore it then flash back to stock rom?

pic are easy to back up i know that.

thank you so much !!!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] derekr44:
When you do a factory wipe, your SD card data is left intact, but all of your apps and Google account data are gone.

A nandroid backup is a complete backup of your ROM and installed apps and data, so you would use that in the event that something problematic happens when you flash a file. It's a complete restore, not just your apps. (very handy to have) You can use something like Nandroid Manager to restore apps, data, sms messages from it, but since the move to 4.3 I've encountered problems restoring the apps. I use it for SMS data, call logs and wifi profiles.

Titanium Backup is used mainly for backing up the apps themselves separately in little packages. After successfully flashing, you can run a batch restore to restore the apps back to where they were.

So in a nutshell, I might do more backup work than others. I run Titanium Backup for all my user apps, then I do a nandroid backup through CWM before doing a full wipe or a dirty flash. That way I can have a full recovery ready, or I can restore my apps individually.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Great advice! Also what I do is backup my latest nandroids to my PC to save space. With clockworkmod recovery it's tricky though cause it's not on the normal part of the sdcard that you see when you mount your sdcard. It's actualy located one directory up.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] DontPushButtons:
This is the exact same way I use tibu and nandroids. I get very few errors using this method and anything that happens can be fixed with a nandroid as a worst case scenario.

Good writeup!
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] Martin_Ro:
That might sound like a dump question in first place, but has you checked wether the vendor drivers are correct implemented ? I ask because in my first build I have forgotten to add them and have had the same (black screen).

Yupers! It is really strange. I'm about to try and pull some logs here in about 5 minutes. That should tell me what's going on.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] damage98:
create an update.zip you can flash tibu with your new ROM as a system app. Put it in your downloads folder and badabing.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Heading home to flash a new build. This time I have USB debugging enabled to get some logs. Fingers crossed...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
I don't have to do all that. I can just restore system or boot in CMW if I need to. It sounds like from what your talking about is the update.zip just makes a backup of your apps and data. Which if I'm not mistaken.. has been known to cause a lot of issues when going from one ROM to the next, and does the same thing as a advanced restore in CWM recovery.

What you can do in TB is restore just the apps (not their data). Then go through and restore data for certain apps only.. At least that's what I always do.

Maybe you should also Start with aosp and then go on from there.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Start over? What do you think I've been doing since android 4.3 came out? I don't have the time or the patients to start over "again". I put a lot of hours into this already and so far it's gotten me where? Nowhere.

Maybe it's because your ROM doesn't require as much work to get building and working. SaberMod has over 100 repos for various patches and features. So if you want to give a stab at it feel free... Maybe one day I can get other people to contribute to this ROM for the parts of my work they are using for their Roms... Contributions besides suggestions or advice that make things sound easy.

What is the point of having a stock AOSP ROM? Would that be SaberMod? No I don't think so. It would be like 100 other Roms out there. So nope not going to happen!

Any other useful suggestions?!

My thought was that you may Start with aosp to set up your build to find out if the Problem is the GCC or your additions.

The tibuzip is just the tibu app as a system app with preferences.

I've never had a problem. Factory reset, flash Sparksco ROM, banks gapps core, tibu system app. I never use Google backup / restore. Login to Google, install the additional gapps I want from the store.

Reboot

Use tibu to restore feedly, Nike+, tapatalk, grooveip, action launcher, podcast addict, hootsuite, floating touched, greenify, amazon, adaway, etc...

Thanks for the awesome ROM.

I'd help you if I could. But I don't know much beyond "repo sync". I've always enjoyed SaberMod the most. I'd be a bit sad if you gave up but it's understandable. It is definitely a lot of work. Vacation time?! Lol. I wish someday to be as brilliant as you are. :)
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Time for the bong and some Pepsi then I'll see how it goes. I don't think it has to do with optimizations why the ROM won't boot. But it could be something (anything), in one of the repos. So maybe starting over wouldn't be such a bad idea. It would probably take a long time...
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] DontPushButtons:
I hope you're not putting the Pepsi IN the bong. I've heard of experimenting with bongwater, but that takes the cake ;).
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] derekr44:
Honestly, I think most (if not all) devs are taking that approach. Maybe at least until 10.2 nightlies start rolling around. Just about every other 4.3 ROM out there right now is based off complete stock with very minimal changes.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
Really? I didn't know most of them have bongs and Pepsi combinations :p

I feel a lot of tension here. I just want to say that I appreciate what all devs here on XDA do. Don't give up! 4.3 is a challenge for not only SaberMod.. Chainfire, CM, PA, and others all were halted by the release. Take necessary breaks and work at YOUR pace. None of us are in NEED of the release. As other devs progress, I'm sure we could benefit here.

As for contributing... Dude, I'm working full time, starting my Senior year in highschool, and starting early college. I have tried to sit down and learn this stuff, but I'd end up falling asleep every time. One day I could jump into this stuff though!

Thank you guys, again, for your time! :)

You got my complete point bravo

Most of them try and give it some cool name or rationalize why it stipped of features then you DL and find out its stock with 1 or two things but in the end its still just a stock ROM lol

Most of the things can be achieved some other way on a stock ROM with the different mods and apks any one can find

Yeah i tried a few diff 4.3 ROMS and neither impressed me that much tbh. I dont think 4.3 brings a whole lot to the table in terms of upgrades and JSS aosp is borked, aosp is in general turmoil atm after JBQ quit. Im staying on saber until 4.3 issues are sorted, if that ever happens. Honestly you're not missing anything from 4.3. Lockups, screen freezes and new bugs.:rolleyes:
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
I'm a little disappointed in battery life on 4.3. Maybe I was spoiled running sm-1.0.1...

I'll probably have some time this weekend to figure some things out.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
I heard some people say the delayed notification bug wasn't fixed. And I don't use the new Bluetooth feature. It really does seem like it would be a downgrade to loose all the features of sm-1.0.1 just for some extra Bluetooth support. But I still plan on working on sm-1.2.0 when I get some extra time.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ScumDroid:
Yea delayed notifications aren't fixed. Shame on google for not making qualcomm fix that. its been an issue since 4.2. Im staying on saber, the upgrade isn't worth the features you lose, and the introduction of a whole new plate of issues with 4.3. You lose connection to wifi when screen is off, lose connection to Google services after phone sleeps (grey bars when screen is turned on) Random screen deadlocks, ect ect ect.

[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] spelaben:
Delayed notifications are fixed on JSS15J.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] ScumDroid:
Dont think so mate. Not for me and lots of others. Do a google search for it and see how many people still have the issue. still takes anywhere from 1 minute to half an hour to receive push notifications. Google really dropped the ball on the JSS build and mako in general afaic. WIFI doesn't stay connected while phone sleeps. You lose connection to google services as soon as the screen is off. Its the same on every ROM/Kernel combo ive tried with 4.3. Let the phone go into deep sleep for half an hour on wifi, turn the screen on, you will either have no wifi connection or the bars will be grey.
[Nexus 4 Original Android Development] sparksco:
I think that's the main issue with the delayed notifications is because WiFi sort of cuts off. Even though WiFi is connected no syncing services are allowed in deep sleep. And yeah I can't believe Google hasn't noticed this or listened to us users about it. I think they need to hire more testers or something :(

After spending some time on a few 4.3 roms since it dropped a few weeks ago, I can safely say there in nothing better than Sabermod latest 4.2.2 build.
